Abstract (in English)

Ntusi and Bigo bya Mugyenyi are two archaeological sites
16 kilometres apart from each other. The archaeological
record dates them two centuries apart, as well with Ntusi
dating, between the 11th and 15th century and Bigo bya
Mugyenyi dating between the 14th and 16th century. Both
of them share a common tradition associating them as
capitals of the legendary Bacwezi. Bacwezi are the rulers
of the ancient Empire of Kitara from which, after the 16th
century, the later inter-lacustrine Kingdoms of Bunyoro -
Kitara, Buganda, Nkore, Rwanda and Karagwe emerged.
